The best guitar company in the world, hands down. Best materials, best sound and best value for money. I ordered a Master's Choice Red and I can't wait to get it!
I play guitar left handed. I came in contact with Furch Guitars while on vacation in Paris November 2019. There was an all left handed guitar store Le Gaucher (it means "the lefty" in French) in the Pigalle Quarter of Paris. They had a Furch Green and I played it as well as a Martin D18 and Eastman E10 . I was struck by the quality of workmanship and beautiful sound of the Furch. The body was larger on the green than I was used to. I got home to California and contacted my go to store Alamo music and now have both a Lefty Blue Master and Red Master. They are both great guitars. The Blue is a solid cedar top with solid African Mahogany for about $1000.00 it plays and sounds amazing! The Red Master has AAAA Sika Spruce and AAAA Indian Rosewood it's stunning but cost over $3,000 and I love it too.
I have been playing guitar for 30 years. I have had beautiful Martin, Maton, Taylor and many others of the most famous brands. A couple of months ago I bought a Furch Vintage 2 Om_sr. For my personal taste Is a wonderful guitar, in the same league of the three big sisters. In my opinion this factory is the perfect mix between high craftsmanship and industrial production. They love guitars.
I’m excited about all the folks discovering this amazing brand for the first time, and especially the mighty collapsible Little Jane! Mine allowed me to always have a guitar with me travelling and even gigging on 3 continents without extra charge ;)
I own a Furch Vintage 2 DSR, and it stands right up to the D-28 and the Guild D-55, but I only paid $1900 (with a Hiscox case! which retails for almost $300!!!). You truly cannot beat that.
@Pete Thorn You're really gonna get a kick out of the travel guitar when you discover that after putting it together again, it will stay in perfect tune.
Furch are brilliant guitars and I always recommend them over Martin’s as they’re higher quality woods than a similar priced Martin. Especially here in Europe.
Spruce tops will warm up over time. IMHO, a spruce top guitar will even sound fuller and warmer than a cedar top in the end. That has been my experience anyway. Also it will change color, will turn more orange/yellow. What a stunning guitar the Red series! Wow!!! Amazingly beautiful instrumental!
I've a Furch Red with Sitka spruce top and as you rightly say ...the fit and finish is impeccable and the sound so impressively clear and articulate . Great review.
That's so cool. Think about how many people work at the factory. Music is an Industry and it's great when we found out it is spread all over the world. Thanks for sharing it Pete. I'll take a look on their website.
Great stuff man! I was looking for something to listen to while setting up my Furch after a fret levelling and crowning I did the other day. This could come at no better time, really inspires to get to play my Furch again shortly!
@ 15:26: Nice little run there, Pete! As always...great demo, playing, passion, knowledge shared of products you demo. Those are some beautiful sounding guitars by Furch. Especially the Red Gc-SR SPA Master's Choice model. Cheers.
I loved your song example--very beautiful...you should consider releasing an entire album of acoustic guitar songs, similar to the example and your song "Rosemary."
You have just introduced yourself to the finest guitars available today that are also within the reach of most players price wise. They blow all others out of the water. I have 2 Blue series with cedar tops, a 6 and 12 string. I've been playing and performing for 60 years and I have played nothing better
I have a ceder top blue series and it is insanely good. Cost me $2k here in Australia and sounds better than alot of the $3-5k guitars I tried. Love it.
My new Furch Blue Plus Gc-CM Master's Choice arrived two days ago and I can't put it down! I love cedar tops and also all mahogany guitars. This one is the best of both!
Just played the om blue cedar top. Have it on hold and just felt so amazing to play, one of the easiest and comfortable acoustics I've tried. Never heard of the company but was recommended. Was looking at this and a maton 808 as I'm in aus. Tough decisions 😌 have always owned martins as I bought them in the usa.
Keep doing the unboxing videos Pete! My cat loves watching box videos and daydreaming about the lovely boxes, and I enjoy your videos. Now my cat and I can watch youtube together.
Great demo as always! Beautiful guitars, great playing! Looks like you don't have room to keep all three, I just cleared out a spot so send them here! Thanks Pete!
The red sounded a bit toppy, while the middle of the road model was well balanced. Surprised by the backpack model, not a much as you, but it sounds pretty damn good. Great demo!
Thanks for a very informative and entertaining video presenting some Furch Guitars. That Red finish and figured Cocobolo look incredible. Great piece of music, amazing that the guitars inspired that piece. Consider me subscribed; to Pete Thorn and Furch Guitars.
@@FurchGuitarsOfficial yeah of course i bought even one furch red gc-sr it is arriving tommorow in our lokal musik shop im so excited. I also really like the furch yellow master choice and furch vintage 3 d sr they are the next on my by list ;)
Thanks for doing an acoustic guitar review video. I've been doing many gigs with acoustic-electric guitars only since the pandemic hit us and things started opening up a bit. A very nice review and thanks again, Pete.
When I received my green DC SR it came in the most perfect condition, I tried one in Hungary and had to have one when I got home, two years later I still love it
Hey there Pete. I deeply enjoyed seeing you in this acoustic context. Really refreshing to see and hear this side of you. I'm in the middle of negotiating for a Red. What perfect timing for this video.
i am happy furch is getting more and recognition around the world. i own vintage 2 dread and its just fantastic D28 type guitar for half the price. one of the finest czech exports as far as i am concerned
Years ago when Musikmesse was still a thing I worked at a booth. After 5 days I was exhausted and wouldn't have been able to tell a Strat from a Les Paul. When I was leaving late at the last day I was passing the Furch booth and they asked me to play one of their guitars. I didn't want to be impolite so I played a few things and they asked me how much I think it would cost. I undervalued it EXTREMELY. I may have offended them and I am ashamed of that. Every Furch I have played since was incredibly nice and I am sure the guitar I played that evening was extremely nice as well, I just wasn't able to appreciate it that evening. That Red series is a dream.
Man i don't know i tried the orange masters and had to return it, besides the crafting defects it came with which is already unacceptable at 3k....i just had an awfull sound, literally 0 volume almost and it was dull, mellow, with no life or character, i mean damn man i played for 17 years and never had many problems with acoustics but this one really let me down...how does that red masters sound without the mic ? Cause i have the feeling that it has no voice at all without it or some amplification aid, maybe i was just unlucky i don't know what to say.
Whips out perfect tease of intro to "... Prudence", then says : I'm no finger-style expert, that's not really my thing... You kill me man. Love your playing.
Hi Pete, Great review as always. I am an authorized dealer. One correction though, the open pore is actually a Grand Auditorium style as is the Red series.
Hi Pete! Thanks for this review, love your playing. Also the drums were really cool sounding were they real drums or software. I’d love to use those sounds. Cheers!
Furch Guitars are incredible! My most favorite acoustic is my S23CR. Really great review here Pete, and I was already sold on the guitar and your videos!
I'm disappointed with Furch, they become greedy. I wanted to buy Furch vintage 2 and it was $3000AU compare wit Martin D18 $3800AU and D28 $4100AU but now they increased to $3800 for vintage 2 and over $4000 for vintage 3. Furch is nice guitar but it is not Martin and need long way to go. Just greedy as they get good reviews.
You keep repeating this message in every Furch video. I don't understand why! If you prefer a Martin or a Taylor-good for you. They're still significantly more expensive than Furch. Each person can prefer what they consider to be a better guitar at probably a better price. From what I can see, Martin is stagnant in inovation and Taylor lost their minds with V-bracing (even the die hard fans disagree with the doungrade in sound because of it). For me Furch brings a fresh sound to a very crowded industry, all in a unique approach.
Hey Pete, thanks a lot for checking out our guitars! Great review as always! And guys, thank you for your comments, you are awesome 💛
The best guitar company in the world, hands down. Best materials, best sound and best value for money. I ordered a Master's Choice Red and I can't wait to get it!
Hello Adi, thank you very much for your words! 🙏 Greetings!
I just recently purchased a Blue Series guitar 🙂, it's a spruce-zebrawood guitar. I love how bright and full and resonant it is! I love this guitar 😊
@@shanerohane7494 Hello Shane, that's great! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us! Greetings 💛

In the famous words of some that know, when all else fails, read the instructions.
Please do not upstroke when testing the sound

Yep ...I' don't even need to hear the review...Furch guitars sound great....I own two
Thank you Paulo for believing in us 💛
Furch are truly incredible guitars - played a Red line one with a cedar top that was so beautiful. I loved the subtle clear pick guard
I own a Furch Vintage 2 DSR, and it stands right up to the D-28 and the Guild D-55, but I only paid $1900 (with a Hiscox case! which retails for almost $300!!!). You truly cannot beat that.
@Pete Thorn You're really gonna get a kick out of the travel guitar when you discover that after putting it together again, it will stay in perfect tune.
Hahaha... when Pete's confused holding the smaller box, Brad Pitt's voice is in my head screaming, "Come on, man! What's in the box?!?"
Furch are brilliant guitars and I always recommend them over Martin’s as they’re higher quality woods than a similar priced Martin. Especially here in Europe.
Agree. I sold a Martin in 2014 to buy my OM35 and never regretted it...and I live in the US where Martins are a lot more readily available.
I predict Furch sells a few guitars this week. Pete, you are the master...
Thanks for the kind words! :) and for watching!
Furch are MARTIN and Taylor guitars killer for years now here in Europe ! Wait for this video
I played one when I was in London a few years back and they’re truly special instruments
Pete Thorn playing acoustic guitar...it's a rare bird, but we love to see it fly...
furch guitars are awesome and on my shopping list very soon

They sound great. What about the action (I know you're sensitive to that)? Very flat radius, is it comfortable? Seems flatter than I would prefer.
Very well done presentation; this should result in some sales for Furch. Your original music was enjoyable as always.
nice playing
really nice. Looks and sounds like a nice guitar
Thank you, Gregory 🙏🏻
you are a damn good player🎸🙏
Your acoustic stuff is really classy. Would love to hear more acoustic tunes from you!
They look & sound amazing. Got their own distinct character too.
Wonderful stuff Pete. Some potential album stuff here. 510 sounds like Gotoh tuners to me.
Funny how new to you guitars sometimes write the song for you. And man did they ever write you a good one, thanks Pete.
Thanks!
Preferred the middle of the road model. Good stuff.
That red series looked and sounded amazing! Awesome song and playing as always Pete!
First Class presentation... as always Mr Thorn.
Hi Pete! You mentioned during the video that one was a red series. Which of the red series guitars did you play? Arcadio from PR.
Beautiful guitars! And weren't even on my radar before today thanks 😃
Just played the om blue cedar top. Have it on hold and just felt so amazing to play, one of the easiest and comfortable acoustics I've tried. Never heard of the company but was recommended.

I've just bought a Furch Indigo Plus DC-Y today. Its absolutely amazing, I love it. Great demo Pete.

WOW great demo AND guitars! It reminds me some Rosa de saron acoustico 2/3 álbum songs. Greetings
Wow! All great sounding seriously balanced!!!
Beautiful guitar. Honestly, it just doesn't sounds $5300 good to me. I could pick up a Taylor 914 for that; which sound amazing to me.
5300? Where did you get that price from, a guy on the side of the road selling Rolex's . Get a clue D"Bag
It is pronounced "Firk" it is a Czech word.
Pete, you can make any guitar sound good , with that being said, my favorite is the one with the cutaway is my favorite , great video as always.
"Furch" rhymes with kirk as in Captain Kirk
An absolutely, exquisite sounding instrument and your performance as usual stellar. Great instrument in a per of great hands!
That is an amazing sounding travel guitar
Loved the travel guitar concept really neat and it sounded great too
Great sounding guitars. Nice demo Pete
CZECH REPUBLIC FOREVER !! :-D
Pete Furch it!! Rock on!!
Thanks for doing an acoustic guitar review video. I've been doing many gigs with acoustic-electric guitars only since the pandemic hit us and things started opening up a bit. A very nice review and thanks again, Pete.
Thank you Kent!
Hey Pete, not enough gigs lately? Short of cash for a trim?
I'm sure someone has already answered this but pretty sure that those are Gotoh 510 tuners on the Red series.
Yeap, well done! Gotoh 510 with silver patina 😉
When I received my green DC SR it came in the most perfect condition, I tried one in Hungary and had to have one when I got home, two years later I still love it

The only thing anyone ever sent me for my review was divorce filings. Lol
Lol sorry bro, same here with me.
Great demo Pete! The Indigo has Grand Auditorium shape, it named Master's Choice model because the factory installed LR Baggs Stagepro Element.

1200 pound.. Yeah.. Another day of gas frustration.
I did enjoy the video instead 😄

Hi Pete found you, and love the content, as a guitarist, enjoy the reviews and demos, regards Danny ~

Hi Pete!
Thanks for this review, love your playing. Also the drums were really cool sounding were they real drums or software. I’d love to use those sounds. Cheers!
beautiful acoustic composition pete
Wow the red is nice but almost $6k.
What a beautifull arrangement.
Was that a bit of Al Di Meola on the travel guitar in the beginning? Sure sounded like it.
I had no idea that Josh Brolin was a talented musician.
That was awesome. The song so great. Thanks a lot 🤘😊

It's just the reality of capitalism. You charge whatever people are willing to pay. If you are popular then you can charge more.
